I hated the McDaniels hire, thank god he backed out. I still can't understand what Ballard was thinking there.
Reich has been a godsend. He's what the Colts are all about and have always been all about. McDaniels is the polar opposite.

Since this has turned into a "for my team" thread...
Colts:
Andrew Luck, Eric Ebron, Darius Leonard, Ryan Kelly, and Quenton Nelson should be in the conversation based on their play. I haven't followed the rest of the league enough to know if they are realistic or not.

1. Quenton Nelson G: Very good. Has a couple lowlight reel plays but otherwise has been extremely consistent and dependable. Just won offensive rookie of the month.
2. Darius Leonard LB: Has to be top 3 for DROY. Has the production of an all pro. Is all over the field and makes impact plays every week.
2. Braden Smith OL: Was drafted as a guard but has been forced to play RT due to injuries. Looks good so far, should keep his starting spot for the foreseeable future.
2. Kemoko Turay DE: Developmental pass rusher who has been hot and cold. 3 sacks so far.
2. Tyquan Lewis DL: Got hurt in camp but should be returning in the coming weeks.
4. Nyheim Hines RB: Early on he seemed like a WR playing RB, but has really been coming on as a runner lately.
5. Reece Fountain WR: Practice squad. Has not been able to crack the active roster despite a bleak WR situation.
5. Jordan Wilkins RB: A capable runner with pretty good vision, but he's nothing special. 3rd on the depth chart behind Mack and Hines.
6. Deon Cain WR: Was one of the main recipients of training camp hype, but got hurt in the first preseason game and was placed on IR.
7. Matthew Adams LB: Good special teamer, a few snaps here and there on D.
7. Zaire Franklin LB: Plays some on run downs. Not atrocious.
What I thought was an underwhelming class has been great so far. Fountain is the only one I would consider a flat out miss to this point with Lewis and Cain as unknowns due to injury. It still pains me to have passed on Harold Landry and Maurice Hurst, but I can't argue with the results.
